Why social media is so special?
The recruitment
industry, as focused on connecting people, is directly and deeply impacted
by the emerging revolution of Social Media.
Decades
before the only way to apply was by directly posting a Cv in response of a job ad.
Nowadays, it is a much broader range of channels that are available.
Most of us have a LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook profile.
We know there is a great potential behind, but still wonder to find a way to take
advantage of those powerful tools.
Maybe you lack of:
- time
- energy
- attention; already dedicated to other priorities like the objective of quick profitability that can’t wait a long term investment
- a guideline. You can feel overwhelmed by so much to do, that we don’t even know where to begin
- trust and convection. Maybe you perceive social media as not serious enough to be a business tool.
Just one statistics: the fastest demographic on Facebook is 55 and the average age of a Twitter user is 35
Or is it because you don’t see the benefits you can get.

Well, I did
That's why I decided to quit my job and work in a co-working space for start-ups. I could then dedicate myself 100% to that project as I believe that social media is the future of Recruitment.
